Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1230
Jason wasn’t interested at all. Seeing how thrilled Hannah was, he pouted his lips and muttered to himself, “It’s just a plain old bridge and stream. What’s the big deal?”
Helen rolled her eyes as she came to a stop next to him. “You just don’t know how to appreciate the scenery, do you? Don’t you find this tranquil?” She huffed. “Ah, forget it. You’re too dim-witted to get it!”
With that, Helen strode ahead and left Jason alone. “I’m dim-witted? You’re the fool! Idiot!” Jason yelled from behind her.
Shortly after, they reached a residential area with ancient houses which had withstood the test of time. There were also a few elderly people chatting happily beside the road.
Fabian led the way to Hannah’s mother’s house.
After walking quite a distance, he came to a stop in front of an old house.
“This is it,” he told Hannah.
At once, Hannah studied the grand but old house with two ferocious lion statues flanking its entrance.
The stately entrance itself showed that Hannah’s birth mother came from a wealthy and influential family.
Winson rushed to the lion statues and touched them carefully.
“When I was young, I remember Mom saying there were two lions guarding them. Finally, I get to see them today,” he uttered.
His mother told him about the lions to make him laugh back then. Deep down, he was overwhelmed with emotions.
“Hannah, open the door. I can’t wait,” he declared.
“Sure!” A flash of bitterness crept up Hannah’s heart. Winson had it worse than me.
